About this Game

Section 8 Box Art
Section 8 is a large-scale, futuristic first person shooter that brings strategy and tactics to the first-person shooter genre in a game where players can modify the battlefield on the fly.

The game's name refers to the super elite squad of powered armor infantry that serve as the focus of the single-player content. The squad’s nickname is because of its penchant for taking on suicide missions that no one else will tackle.

The PS3 version includes a robust multiplayer mode which includes 11 multiplayer maps, three of which are not included at retail on any other platform.
